Firefox Mobile OS for smartphones : According to the latest research from Strategy Analytics, Firefox OS will capture 1 percent share of smartphone shipments in 2013. Firefox Mobile OS will target entry level smartphone users, a segment currently dominated by Android. Scott Bicheno, Senior Analyst at Strategy Analytics, said, “Firefox Mobile OS is an operating system for smartphones being developed by Mozilla. The platform is designed to be open-source, licensable, and relatively low-cost. Firefox OS supports HTML5 apps and it is gaining interest from several hardware vendors and operators, such as ZTE and Telefonica. We expect the first Firefox smartphones to launch commercially in the first half of next year.”
